Almost all the cars had started flashing their lights on and off. I knew what was coming. Being on a two lane road there wasn’t much a person could do to get in front of a slow moving vehicle. My mom kept telling me to keep a cars length of distance between me and the slow car in front of me. I was doing the speed limit and the other driver was‚ obviously

Those people stick to their idea of reality‚ and reject any other persons’ truths that don’t line up with theirs‚ even if it could help them see the world in a new

In The Ocean at the End of the Lane it is clear that adults and children see the world differently from believing in the impossible‚ to a child’s curiosity‚ and the “undefeatable” adult.

A Trip Down Memory Lane The stars have been shining brightly under the dark blanket of the sky. Thin little gray clouds hover around casting light shadows on the face of the moon. A few chirping notes from the sound of crickets outside completes the serenity of the night. I have long been fond of watching these diamond-like trinkets sparkling from high above that simply watching them every night gives me this feeling like that of a child given sweet treats. But it seems like after
